So I miss-counted! 110!

I still have to email everyone. And I apologize for any misspellings. But to sum up what you are looking at . . . .

the name of the person who ordered – first initial then last name.

the name that will be painted in the “{}.”

and the total number of canvases for that order.

No one freak if you are towards the bottom. Things happen and some people get tired of waiting. So, I’m sure there will be a few that will drop off. Again, Ashley {my sister and babysitter} is coming at least 2 times a week this summer. And during the time she is here, I’ll be locked up in my room painting. My goal is to knock it out!

I can’t thank you all enough for all the kind words and for all those pushing me through or pulling me up! I am so excited and amazed for all 110 orders. Fortunately, this time I am really not stressed like the last time I got so overwhelmed with orders. Then, it really came unexpectedly and add on the fact that Hudson got diagnosed with that crazy kidney issue. I don’t know who of you have been following me since then, but after a horrible experience at the children’s hospital {a hospital that apparently has never heard of sensory issues,} Hudson wouldn’t let me leave his side for weeks – including when he was sleeping. Then throw into the mix a nursing baby AND upteen thousand therapy appointments we had recently started. I was up the creek without a paddle. My life spun around at warp speed and when it stopped, we were going in a different direction! If it wasn’t for my art {and medication – haha,} I don’t really know how I could have made it work! {I’m kidding! haha!} {Okay, not really! haha!}

This time, we all have a plan and some different expectations. I really don’t think {please, Lord} that this is a year’s worth of work due to the summertime help aaaannnnddddd in the fall, all 4 OF THE KIDS WILL BE IN SOME KIND OF SCHOOL 5 DAYS A WEEK!!! Did you hear me?! Mind you, one of them is in only a 3 hour program and two in a 4 hour program, but I’m thinking I can make it work better than what I’ve had this year!

Looking at the list above, I’m blown away. The biggest thing is how many of you are repeaters! You came back! Even ones that waited forever last time! THAT is why it has taken me some time to get back to you all. The shock of all the ones who are coming back for more has been the most overwhelming to me – not the length of the list. All of you rock! But to see the ones come back is really the best feeling in the world.

thank you.
